I have run all the HW diagnostics to identify a hardware problem. So
far, all tests passed without error. I then ran a full read scan test
and it passed this test as well. Now, I am running a read-write scan
test on disks, this is running since two days now and not yet completed.

I had some data on old fs living on this server, I was able to transfer
some of it, but I discovered that a scp to transfer a directory contents
was failing always at the same byte when reading a file. I tried many
combinations of kernel running without smp support, with alternatively
each processor rather than both and this problem is always there. I also
try different combination of time synchronization between CPUs, three
are currently possibles: NON, PARTIAL and FULL. This doesn't make any
difference. So, waiting for the read-write full disk scan test to
complete since this is the only remaining possibility for an hardware
problem identification.

Will post when done.

TIA,
